Family Centered Care Approach - Neurology Center

The pediatric neurologist will ensure that your child’s special health care needs and family concerns are addressed. The neurology care team will ensure that families are an important part of the treatment process and work closely with the patient, whether it’s a first-time clinic visit or a follow-up clinic visit. Patients and families gain peace of mind as they become familiar with the health care team and establish relationships that will last throughout their journey.

Patient and Family Education

Your child’s pediatric neurologist provides education relative to the diagnosis, treatment and management of your child’s condition. The nurse can offer education and instruction in specific treatments or procedures, growth and development, health and nutrition and general physical health.

Ask a member of the care team if there are any educational materials you can bring home to learn about your child’s illness and how to manage it or visit the Health Library. There are also special educational materials available to you in the Neurology Center and the Family Resource Center.
